Thanks Benzgirl- I feel better now. I napped this afternoon too and was too tired to go work out once I woke up.

It's all good- we'll make up for it tomorrow!

60 laps today- a new personal record for a single swim routine, and most of it sprint work. Came home and after some beef fajitas and about a one pound piece of baked salmon I took a long nap. Feeling good now, but still hungry...

Played golf, without a golf cart. 18 holes baby.

Carrying the bag and walking counts as exercise even more so since we can't drink on the course

Yoga in the morning and Body Combat in the afternoon. Yup, in spite of my neck injury.

50 laps of short distance work including some killer butterfly and backstroke. I am feeling seriously sore tonight!

I'm supposed to run a half marathon tomorrow but it's supposed to be close to 100 degrees and humid in the DC area I likely won't end up running since I have a history of fainting in heat.

That pretty much describes what the weather is like everyday here. I have to say it has helped with my endurance, though I doubt I could run a half marathon in the heat/humidity.

Will be running 5 mile loop tonight.

I'm a delicate flower (ok, a wuss) who moves to the treadmill anytime it gets over 75 degrees. I ran a 5k under similar conditions in June and a) it took me nearly 27 minutes and b) I'm not sure I could have kept going for 10 more miles.

Well, thanks to Ike I am not running the Lewis & Clark half marathon right now. 75 minutes after I left my house I was still in a line of hundreds of cars trying to get to the start. Once the start time came and went, I pulled out of line and came home. It took me less than 30 minutes to get home, even considering how slow I was driving!

Oh well. Who wants to run 13.1 miles while getting 3+ inches of rain dropped on you with the risk of flash flooding, right?

Sorry bout that pbear- it is really odd to imagine a hurricane affecting St. Louis!

52 laps today- 50 of them non-stop at a good fast pace followed by a 100m butterfly set.

To the other swimmers- what do you do when you swallow air on long distance swims. Today my stomach swelled until I was very uncomfortable and it is only now- an hour later- that I am finally burping and getting back to normal. There has to be a way to deal with this right after a swim.

Well, I did it -- but it was pretty dang miserable. Record heat and high humidity. Yuck.
